Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Right up the alley of western fans. A good follow-up to El Dorado.
The mood
Easygoing.
The pace
Well paced, at 56 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
What might put you off
Made in 1942: an older pace and style.

In this western, a rancher is ambushed, killed, and robbed, but for some reason the killers through his money pouch in the bushes without opening it. Later a woman happens upon the cash and finds herself a prime suspect in the killing. Fortunately, a survey engineer proves her innocence, and they begin looking for the real villains.
